My job career

Department of Orthopaedic Research and Biomechanics Research (Abteilung für Unfallchirurgische Forschung und Biomechanik), University of Ulm, Germany



I have been employed in the spine work group at the Department of Orthopaedic Research and Biomechanics Research (Abteilung für Unfallchirurgische Forschung und Biomechanik), University of Ulm .
There I programmed the universal spine tester. The software of the universal spine tester in the first version was developed on an Atari TT, which has then been replaced by a PC, becaus the performance went down with more complex algorithms in controlling and measurements. For this reason the the the port on PC in C as programming language has been decided. From this port a complete new rewrite of the software followed.
Before this I have been in the knee-joint group, where I did the programming of the knee-joint simulator, until this software was ported on Apple Macintosh with LabView as programming language.
Besides the programming I have looked for the hardware of the universal spine tester and teached the users.

Take a look on a screenshot of the (new) software of the universal spine tester:
